Orlando Pirates will be looking to get back to winning ways in the return of the DStv Premiership when they visit Golden Arrows on Saturday afternoon.
Result: Golden Arrows v Orlando Pirates
Date: 20 November 2021
Venue: Princess Magogo Stadium
Time: 15h30
After ending their winless run against Sekhukhune Unietd, the Buccaneers could not turn the corner as they lost 2-1 to rivals Kaizer Chiefs before the FIFA break and as a result dropped down to seventh on the log.
Arrows, meanwhile, are also struggling to rediscover their early season form, as they extended their winless run to four matches after playing to a goalless draw against Stellenbosch before the international break.
As a result, Lehlohonolo Seema's charges find themselves in tenth place on the log, three points behind Pirates and they need to win by a margin of two goals to leapfrog the Buccaneers on the log.
Abafana Bes'thende did beat Pirates 2-0 in the second-round meeting between the sides last season on home soil, after the first-round clash ended goalless.
